SharePoint & Office 365 Code Quality Analysis & Transformation Guidance This session is split in two phases.

Wow, time really does fly! In 2013 I wrote a small piece on the history of Sweden SharePoint User Group, or SSUG (Find it here: http://zimmergren.net/business/sweden-sharepoint-user-group-6-years-and-counting-were-growing). Since we founded the group back in 2007, we have been engaging the SharePoint crowd in Sweden with in-person meetings and networking meetups. With this post I just want to post some updates on what’s happening in SharePoint Sweden and what the recent survey we conducted has resulted in. What’s new with SSUG in 2015? 8 Years! We are celebrating eight years. We have put in a lot…

Last July, we put the word out that Microsoft will host a unified enterprise technology conference in May. We told you it will bring together the best of previously individual events – the Management Summit, the Exchange, SharePoint, Lync, Project, and TechEd conferences – and then take it to the next level, based on what our customers and partners have asked for. Now, we have more to share. – Frank X. Shaw, blogs.microsoft.com If you’…

I was in Las Vegas at the Microsoft SharePoint Conference this year (2012) attending some great (and some not so great) sessions about SharePoint 2013. During the week I’ve met many old friends, made some new friends and had a blast every single day. This will be a fairly short story, mentioning the sessions I liked and talking about some of the events that happened during our stay in Vegas. What happened at SPC12? Well, everything…

My session: Developing with Silverlight + SharePoint 2010 = Awesome I’ll be talking about how you can utilize Silverlight in SharePoint 2010 to create some cool RIA applications hosted inside (or outside!) of SharePoint.
